Howdy I'm new here and to reddit. Question how should one take before and after pictures?

I wanted to see yall's thoughts. I just started as a new bee out in the wilderness. I go to gas stations, HEB, churches to meet potential customers. Im not afraid to talk to anyone, or sale myself. I would say my personalty is bubbly extrovert. At the same time I need to bee more professional. my first car took me 4 hrs to do in total, start to finish 4pm-8pm for detailing the inside only. Here is a chart

Personal Items10mins1st Car (Black inside Ford)
trunk details, trash vac and shampo46mins
All inside, vac,wipe down, shampoo seats, air vents, console , screens.2hrs 23 minstotal $100.

I should have at lest chraged 125$ but I was a CHICKEN lol, I even check out the car in person. I said out out to the customer "oh its not that bad" it was bad. I just started my sole proprietor yesterday and I'm very excited. What I have is a buffer (which is my favorite part) suds soap and dressing, 2 thick 25 fit cords, 6 gal air compressor, Greenworks 1800-PSI 1.1-GPM, yet leaks water, CERAKOTE Rapid Ceramic Paint Sealant, Mothers California Gold Clay Bar.
